Chapter 523 Having Her Back

"I can pay for that..." Miles hurriedly interrupted Jonathan. However, he realized Clover had purchased it and wouldn't give it to him even if he offered a higher price.

Clover was so calculated to foot the bill and sign the contract beforehand. That way, Miles couldn't do anything about it!

At that point, Miles regretted his action earlier. Had he not been distracted by Harriette, he could've prevented Clover from purchasing the suit! He looked at Clover onstage and saw his annoying smile. Although Clover was shocked to receive Jonathan's support, he quickly seized the chance and added, "It's okay, Rosie. Even if you refuse to be my sister, I'll still gift this suit to you!"

His genuine expression, paired with Emily's characterization of him, made the usually arrogant man look rather pitiful at that moment. It would be hard to hurt someone with a face like that. He stared at Rose, awaiting her decision.

"Clover!" Miles tightened his fists. He didn't expect the CEO of Lerain Group to resort to such dirty tricks! The worst part was... Rose fell for it.

He gripped tighter on her forearm. "Rosie..."

Rose could vividly feel Miles' disappointment when she said those words. She knew she had angered him. However, it remained a mystery to her as to why he was so opposed to the idea.

"That's right, Rosie. Come on. I'll lead you up there." Emily tugged Rose's hand. That was the crucial and final push Emily needed to grant her boss' wish.
